Research Interest
Genomic technologies are powerful tools to explore gene expression, diseases associated DNA variants, epigenetic regulation, chromatin conformation, genetic dependency and many other fundamental biological questions. More recently, single cell sequencing has further improved our understanding of heterogeneous cell population and drug resistance at single cell level. The mission of this core lab is to apply and develop genomics and bioinformatics methods to drive our understanding of biology and diseases. Our lab will develop informatics and wet lab capabilities to interrogate biology questions and translational medicine applications. Key efforts of this lab are to
(1) Drive scientific discoveries through deep interdisciplinary collaboration;
(2) Develop and optimize novel genomic technologies and bioinformatic technologies, including but not limited to, single cell multi-omics and novel functional genomics screening;
(3) Drug target identification.
